Delta, British Columbia (September 29, 2006) – Technical Solutions, Inc., provider of miniature CPU Modules based on the ARM7/9 cores today selected Ultimate Solutions, Inc. as their sole distributor to promote their line of Medallion CPU modules, development kits and design services.
Up until now, Ultimate Solutions has primarily focused on distributing development tools. In an effort to leverage their strong base of customers building embedded systems, the company has launched a new division whose primary focus will be to sell small footprint processor and communication modules.
In December of 2005, USI signed an exclusive agreement to distribute Analogue & Micro's line of Freescale PowerPC™ modules. In a short amount of time, the company realized that it would be beneficial to expand their CPU module business by offering similar products based on other popular 32-bit RISC architectures.
“After a long and laborious effort to find a compatible company who offered a unique product based on Advanced RISC Machine's ARM™ core, we approached Technical Solutions. Their product offering and company make up was exactly what we were looking for” says Peter Tympanick, Director of Sales & Marketing at Ultimate Solutions. Peter goes on to say; “The fact that they manufacture a miniature module called the SA2410 based on Samsung's S3c2410a is what first attracted me to the company. After my visit to their facility in British Columbia, Vancouver, I realized we've got a engineering jewel on our hands.” Technical Solutions has demonstrated to companies like Samsung that their knowledge of the ARM core, combined with their expertise in porting Linux and Java™ to these devices enables them to cost-effectively provide hardware and software solutions that can be integrated into just about any intelligent device, especially those with major power or space constraints.”
Brian Empey, Founder and President of Technical Solutions added; “we've always been very engineering centric and have never put much emphasis on sales and marketing mainly because we're just too busy being engineers.” Brian goes on to say; “When Ultimate Solutions knocked on our door, we realized that they were the perfect company to help us gain more exposure and enable us to grow our business to levels that we would never have achieved on our own.”
